Highlights
“Due to unforseen circumstances we were faced with having to completely replace our roof. After lots and lots of research, I can only highly recommend the company we chose to do this - SWF. Their team has worked skillfully and enthusiastically throughout, replacing all timbers, felt and roof tiles. They arrived early each morning, working all day long in this very cold weather, without any moans or groans. All personnel where polite and enthusiastic to 'get the job done', they kept us informed, they didnt waste time - working throughout each day , a credit to their company. If you have any roof issues, I would not hesitate to recommend SWF. Dont waste time with companies who make promises they carnt keep, SWF fullfilled each and every promise to us. From start to finish, we are more than pleased.”
“Replacement of Flat Felt Roof (9m x 3m) on rear extension to Bungalow with Firestone Rubber Roof System. From first contact to last, the SWF team were prompt, courteous, on-time and did a professional job. Work was completed in accordance with quote provided and although there was additional work to remove and replace more slates joining onto the flat roof than anticipated. this was taken in the team's stride and with no quibble. All work was completed in a day to a high standard via a skilled team. All traces of the old roof were removed from site and area around left clean and tidy. All in all a great job and based on my experience from start to finish I would recommend SWF”
“Great to see you again after 10 years. Well done to you. All so polite, excellent work, very pleased with everything you have done for me. 10/10. Thank you.”

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
Roofing isn't licensed, so anyone can set up - and it's a trade with more than its share of cowboys. A big re-roof must meet building regulations; CompetentRoofer (the Government-authorised NFRC scheme) registers roofers who can self-certify that, and vets and inspects them at least twice a year. Check they're on it before you hire.
Check the CompetentRoofer registerNever agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note. That is the classic roofing scam.
Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee, not a vague day rate.
Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
